Eagles & Dragons

A History of Americans in China & the Origins of The American Club Hong Kong

The original Eagles and Dragons was published in 1997 for the Club’s 77th anniversary. The book covers the rich history of Americans in China and the Club’s activities for its first 70 odd years of history. Eagles and Dragons begins in 1784 with the Empress of China departing New York Harbor on February 22, the first American ship to visit China. The book takes readers through to 1996 and shares stories of the Club and the Hong Kong community, a fascinating read.
